Apparatus are described for comparing a search criterion from a first device to a image collection digest of a second device. Based on the comparison, a presentation may be presented at the first device reflecting that the second device is communicatively coupled over a network. In one embodiment, the image collection digest is obtained from the second device, and the comparison is made at the first device. In another embodiment, the image collection digest is obtained at a server device, and the comparison is made at the server device. The search criterion may comprise one or more of subject face information, geographic information, temporal information, event information, and keyword information.
